Smooth Scrolling in Next.js
How to add buttery smooth scrolling to a Next.js app using Lenis, GSAP ScrollTrigger, and Locomotive Scroll. The tradeoffs, the setup, and when you actually need it.
All the topics I've covered. I write about React, Next.js, TypeScript, databases, AI/ML, cloud deployment, performance optimization, and system design.

Move beyond duration-based animations. Learn how spring physics creates motion that responds, adapts, and feels genuinely natural. The secret behind iOS's fluid interactions.
Master easing curves to make your animations feel natural. Learn why linear is almost always wrong, how cubic-bezier works, and which easing to use for different interactions.
Learn how circuit breakers prevent cascading failures in distributed systems. Understand why services fail together, how to implement circuit breakers, and practical patterns for building resilient microservices.
